Reviving this 2012 thread discussing wire wing mounts on the Mid. Rama, we can discuss at the weekend

I found this page which has a pic showing how Kondo and others mounted the vertical wing tubes - there's a bespoke plastic block there, screwed through the lower link mount and then the tubes must be screwed through/into the vertical face:

Wow
Some real interesting things on that mid
Notice the different way the front sway bar is mounted and the plastic piece on the rear of the gearbox instead of the metal plate to hold the rear wishbone pins
Also that frp (or is it carbon?) chassis

That doesn't look like a regular mid body either

I believe this is one of the 1987 prototype mids from Romsey WC.
